  • For the light emitting diode in the related art, in order to ensure that the organic light emitting diode has a relative high color rendering index, the light emitting spectrum of the light emitting diode needs to be as wide as possible, and therefore, the light emitting diode with a weak microcavity structure is often used in the field of lighting devices, so that the light emitting efficiency of the light emitting diode is reduced, and the power consumption is increased.
  • Therefore, how to reduce the power consumption of the light emitting diode while ensuring that the light emitting diode has a relative high color rendering index becomes an urgent technical problem to be solved in the field.
  • An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a light emitting diode, as shown in FIG. 2, including a first electrode 110, a light-emitting functional layer 130, and a second electrode 120, which are stacked, where the first electrode 110 is a transparent electrode, and a light transmittance of the second electrode 120 ranges from 65% to 70% for light having a wavelength of 400 nm to 500 nm. It can be seen that a reflectivity of the second electrode 120 for light having the wavelength of 400 nm to 500 nm is between 30% and 35%.
  • Note that, the light transmittance of the second electrode 120 for blue light may be defined to be between 65% and 70%.
  • In the present disclosure, the specific structure of the second electrode 120 is not particularly limited. In an implementation, as shown in FIG. 2, the second electrode 120 includes a metal electrode layer 121 and a semiconductor auxiliary layer 122. The metal electrode layer 121 is attached to the light-emitting functional layer 130, and the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122 is disposed on a surface of the metal electrode layer 121 facing away from the light-emitting functional layer 130.
  • Note that, the metal electrode layer 121 should have a small thickness so that the metal electrode layer 121 has a light transmittance. The second electrode 120 having “a light transmittance between 65% and 70% for light having a wavelength of 400 nm to 500 nm” can be obtained by adjusting the thicknesses of the metal electrode layer 121 and the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122. In some implementations, the thickness of the metal electrode layer 121 is between 3 nm and 5 nm.
  • The light emitting diode provided by the present disclosure is a top emission diode, the first electrode 110 is an anode of the light emitting diode, and the second electrode 120 is a cathode of the light emitting diode. The second electrode 120 of the light emitting diode has both transmission and reflection properties, so that when the light emitting diode emits light, the second electrode 120 can enhance an intensity of a microcavity formed in the light emitting diode, but does not enhance a weak microcavity to a strong microcavity, and thus when the light emitting diode emits light, a high color rendering index, a wide spectrum and a high light emitting efficiency can be obtained, thereby the power consumption of the light emitting diode is reduced.
  • In the present disclosure, the metal electrode layer 121 is made of a metal material, and the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122 is made of a semiconductor material. The main function of the metal electrode layer 121 is to conduct electricity and form an electrode, and the metal electrode layer 121 can also provide better light reflection performance. The main function of the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122 is to adjust the transmittance of the second electrode 120, and the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122 is made of a transparent semiconductor material (e.g., indium zinc oxide (IZO)).
  • In some implementations, the metal electrode layer 121 is made of a magnesium-silver alloy, and the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122 is made of indium zinc oxide.
  • In order to make the metal electrode layer 121 have both good reflectivity and good conductivity, in some implementations, the magnesium is 70% to 90% by mass of the magnesium-silver alloy forming the metal electrode layer 121. When the metal electrode layer 121 is manufactured, the metal electrode layer 121 may be obtained by magnetron sputtering using the magnesium-silver alloy as a target material.
  • In some implementations, a thickness of the semiconductor auxiliary layer 122 is between 100 nm and 130 nm.

Accordingly, the light-emitting functional layer 130 includes a first hole injection layer 131, a first hole transport layer 132, a red light-emitting functional layer 133, a green light-emitting functional layer 134, a first electron transport layer 135, a connecting layer 136, a second hole injection layer 137, a second hole transport layer 138, a blue light-emitting functional layer 139, and a second electron transport layer 1310, which are stacked.
  • The first hole injection layer 131 is disposed on the first electrode 110, and the second electrode 120 is disposed on a surface of the second electron transport layer 1310 facing away from the blue light-emitting functional layer 139.
  • In the light emitting diode provided by the present disclosure, the green light-emitting functional layer 134 is formed directly after the red light-emitting functional layer 133 is formed, then the connecting layer is formed, and the blue light-emitting functional layer is formed on the connecting layer. A peak value of green light in the light emitted by the light emitting diode is 520 nm to 535 nm, a peak value of blue light in the light emitted by the light emitting diode is 465 nm to 475 nm, and a full width at half maximum of the blue light is 69 nm to 79 nm.
  • The connecting layer 136 allows both electrons and holes to pass therethrough, and thus, the connecting layer 136 may be made of an aluminum nitride material.
  • After the second electrode layer 120 is formed, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, an encapsulation layer 140 is used to perform encapsulation.
  • In the present disclosure, a specific structure of the encapsulation layer 140 is not particularly limited, as long as the light-emitting functional layer of the light emitting diode can be isolated from outside to prevent the light-emitting functional layer from being corroded by external water and oxygen. In some implementations, as shown in FIG. 3, the encapsulation layer 140 includes a first encapsulation layer 141 made of tetrafluoroethylene and a second encapsulation layer 142 made of silicon nitride, the first encapsulation layer 141 is attached to the second electrode 120, and the second encapsulation layer 142 is located on a side of the first encapsulation layer 141 facing away from the light-emitting functional layer 130.
  • The first encapsulation layer 141 made of tetrafluoroethylene has a certain light reflecting performance, so that a weak microcavity of the light emitting diode can be enhanced to a certain extent, and the light emitting efficiency is improved.
  • An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a light emitting device including the above light emitting diode provided by the present disclosure.

  • forming a semiconductor auxiliary layer on a surface of the metal electrode layer away from the first electrode.
  • As described above, the light emitting diode is a top emission type light emitting diode, since the second electrode is both reflective and transmissive, when the light emitting diode emits light, the weak resonant microcavity formed in the light emitting diode is enhanced but is not enhanced to a strong microcavity, and thus, a high light emitting efficiency can be achieved while ensuring a high color rendering index, and thus the power consumption is low.
